Gold Pineapple

COSTA RICA

We are in the typically rainy season of Costa Rica and the farms are receiving “normal” amounts of rain. The fields are designed to handle this amount of rain. The good growers also have better nutrition in place for stronger pineapple to deal with the excess water that is expected.

March will remain at depressed levels of production, with significantly less production due to the reduced plantings during the drought. As we move closer to April probability increases for production to recover and meet export commitments.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Watermelon

Our watermelon production has transitioned from Sonora, Mexico to Nayarit and Jalisco, we’ll continue shipping from those regions through February, weather permitting.

 

Tomato

Roma harvest out of Michocan will continue to be strong until January. We will then transition to Sinaloa and Sonora. Cooler weather will create lower supplies to begin and will increase as harvest moves through the spring months. Even though supply is lite, quality will remain strong.
The farm in Sinaloa will provide us the ability to offer customers roma, round and grape tomatoes as well as bell peppers and cucumbers.
